Congress speaks on the Deficit
“The division is apparent in congress.
Republican agenda:
Keep the tax cuts for the1% wealthy-Warren Buffets of the world, no control upon the abuse of the insurance companies.
Democrat agenda:
Preserve and protect so called “entitlement programs” - life line programs and put controls upon the abuses of the Insurance companies. These are the issues that are on the table in congress today.
The deficit crisis came about because of unpaid wars, cut on the wealthiest, and deregulation of Wall Street.
It is immoral what the Republicans are trying to do. They want to eliminate the deficit brought about by the Bush Administration by cutting programs that have been put in place as lifelines for all American Citizens.
Republicans hope to win the election by placing their deficit around Obama’s neck like an albatross, and then blaming him for the deficit and wanting to cut entitlement programs as their resolve. Republicans stand there with straight sincere faces screaming, "It is Obama’s failed policies that have brought this crisis upon our country." They use excuses like stimulus package, and government take over of our Health Care. The spending on the Health Care bill has not even gone into effect yet, but Republicans are blaming it. They simply ignore the CBO analysis of the Health Care Bill and how it will bring down our deficit.
Beware of Republican rhetoric:
“ Democrats are trying to raise taxes on the small businesses,” “The spending on government take over of Health Care is the cause of our crisis,” “Obama’ failed Policies,” and” “We’ve got to do something about the sense of entitlement,” this kind of rhetoric is just not true. Obama administration along with the Democrat congress lowered taxes for the small businesses. Entitlement programs as they call it were there while Clinton was in office. We have the record of Clinton's administration, which brought us out of a deficit and we had a stable economy. Republican leaders want to cut something they have no knowledge of.
Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security are up on the table in congress because Speaker of the house demands this. The Speaker of the house‘s role is very important. Congress comes out today to tell us it has come down to, “Wealthiest vs Most Vulnerable”, and Corporations vs American citizens. They say both sides must sacrifice. It will be painful. I disagree. If we compromise our most vulnerable in order to get the wealthiest corporations to pay their fair share and we fail to take away the Bush tax cuts to the wealthiest the only people who will feel the pain and suffering is the Elderly, poor, working class, disabled, and our children. What is painful is turning on my Television and having to listen to the Republican leaders speaking on this issue and act like they are doing something positive for the American people.
Every citizen has a moral obligation to get out the vote, to change leadership in our house, which directs what is up on the table. ” ~True Blue Party

The Economy
The causes of the deep recession and struggles of middle class families were many years in the making, and they won’t be solved overnight.
In the last sixteen months, we’ve added over 2.2 million private sector jobs, thanks, in part, to the steps we have taken to break the momentum of the recession. But we all know faster growth is needed to replace the jobs lost in the downturn and put the millions of Americans who are looking for jobs back to work.
· The President is pursuing an array of additional measures to accelerate that growth, including steps to expand American exports, boost manufacturing, ease the process of bringing new products to market and spur public-private partnerships to rebuild Americas infrastructure.
But there is no doubt that one, large brick on growth is the size of the federal debt, and questions about whether we, as a nation, can act responsibly to deal with it and make our future more secure.
· That’s why the President is working to bring Republicans and Democrats in Congress behind a comprehensive effort to get our deficits and debt under control so that our economy is on stronger footing and businesses have the confidence to invest and create jobs.
· President Obama believes in a balanced approach to deficit reduction – one where everyone does their part to restore fiscal responsibility and forces Washington to live within its means just like families are doing across the country.
· Balance requires shared sacrifice – through cutting spending in domestic and defense programs, tackling rising costs in Medicare and Medicaid, and ending special tax breaks and loopholes for the wealthiest Americans and corporate interests.
· We can reduce our deficits while making the investments needed to create good jobs and grow our economy – investments in job-creating areas like education, infrastructure, clean energy and cutting-edge research and technology.
· As we deal with these issues, we also have a responsibility to shore up Medicare and Social Security. With our aging population, a failure to act would jeopardize the hard-earned benefits so central to the security of future retirees.
· The Republican budget plan would end Medicare as we know it, making seniors pay an extra $6,000 for their health care, just so millionaires and billionaires can get another $200,000 tax cut.
· But the President refuses to balance our budgets on the backs of those who can least afford it. That doesn’t make sense, and it’s not who we are as a country.
· Social Security and Medicare are sacred promises based on the idea that we are a people who look out for one another. We believe in basic measures of security and dignity for all of us.
· And to make sure those programs are around for future generations, President Obama believes that both parties should work together now to strengthen them – not end them.
· Reducing our deficit will require balanced solutions and tough decisions. But that’s why he ran for President – to tackle the tough problems that have held us back for so long.
· That’s how we’ll build an America where we live within our means, live up to our fundamental sense of decency and regard for one another, and create new jobs and opportunity for all who work for it.

If nobody wants to listen to me maybe you will listen to this little girl when she speaks about the enviroment
Our environment we take for granted. Listen to this young girl 13 years old. When will certain members of congress stop and listen? You should know who isn't listening, it's the ones who vote against policies that would help our air, water , lands , ocean, marine life, and wild life.

Why do people believe as they do? Wild fires are in Texas and many Texans want to blame Obama instead of their Govenor Rick Perry
In contemplating this, I wondered, Why do conservatives continue to believe lies when they make no sense. Then I saw this quote: "How many lies can you allow yourself to believe, before you belong to the lie?" –Mort Sahl"
I was frustrated to say the least today. I was on FB today and I noticed a friend of mine posting a link about "Texas wild fires." She added this to the top "Call Washington and ask why is it they will not help Texas fight Forest Fires? To be President is to serve regardless of political affiliation and differences." If you came across this post with out any knowledge about the subject you might agree with this statement. If you made a judgment based on this one statement and jumped in the "yell at Obama for not doing anything about this horrible situation with the fires" wagon, you might be guilty of believing a lie. I came along reading this post and decided to straighten out this misrepresentation. I first stated that Republican Governor Rick Perry from Texas was offered money, but did not agree to pay it back. Then I decided to post a link which I felt was unbiased. The poster chose not to look at the link. They had an opportunity to educate them selves on the subject but chose not to so. Many people have missed opportunities to grow. Truth can be handed to them yet they refuse to look. I could not understand this persons rationality, as they have been an out spoken Environment advocate. Yet, they sat at their computer further typing Obama hate words.They actually spit on the man who has supported their cause. Why? They believe the lie. They further attacked me for having a personal cause, and posting propaganda. This again made no sense. I do stand for a cause. They are partly right, but the cause I stand for is not personal it is a cause for all people. Martin Luther King once said "I Have A Dream" Gandhi too had a dream, Jesus had a dream. The Dream that all people can live in harmony with each other. The dream that no one will be judged or hated based upon the color of their skin, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. That all people have the same opportunities to live a full and happy life, that with in that life they can find justice. That no person should go to bed hungry. That our fellow man should have a safe place to rest his head.That all people should never worry about how they are going to pay for their Health care or worry if they can even get treated, then worry if they can afford the medicine.That human life is valued. We do not kill because of our differences. I too have this Dream. These ideas are not mine they have always been with us. I only hope that what ever I do will contribute to this Dream. Why do people think how they do. ""How many lies can you allow yourself to believe, before you belong to the lie?" –Mort Sahl"
If someone tells you to do something that detours you from the Dream, then you know it is a lie. Always seek for truth and when you find it , it will feel good! It will be good to all man kind.

Take a look at what Obama did to help the environment in his first 100 days
Obama's work in helping our environment go green in his first 100 days, and this was just the beginning. I find it ironic that any person who claims they are Green would speak out against Obama.It happens though every day. My Texas friend is an avid environmentalist, yet talks against the very party and President that supports the issues she holds dear. Isn't it IRONIC? Don't you think?
